SOC 2440 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 42% sure that is the right code. Worley is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 2431 (Management consultants and business analysts) or SOC 2127 (Engineering project managers and project engineers). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
